I personally choose not to play as much or login because (mtx) exists.. It makes me feel like nothing I do in-gam is of any importance. So if I login I just chat with others for most part now. I used to play this game back in the day before being deceived over and over again. Best wishes to all.
Jagex declared WAR on April 2nd, 2012 by implementing MTX.

Unfortunately (to you), there are hardly any games without MTX nowadays. It will be even harder to find any in a couple of years. So, you may just want to quite playing online games all alone... or you may just want to play some single player or 4 person co-op console games since the less players the games are designed for, the less pay-to-win and therefore the less MTX. ;)

This is not necessarily always true though, since even some developers are even selling extra lives and skins in pac-man clones now. :D :D :D

Better yet, just don't play any games if you hate MTX so much. You may talk in the forums for free... well... at least until the developers someday put MTX there so you may need to pay for your forum title, picture and user ID. :D :D :D

Hmm... some people don't realize loot boxes are freshly added to Nintendo games even like Animal Crossing just a couple of weeks ago? :D :D :D

Nobody knows ESO, a big Bethesda games, doesn't have heaps of loot boxes and other forms of MTX? :D :D :D

It won't matter if just a few people in the forums don't realize the facts because companies know them. That's why they are pushing all the MTX initiatives so they can reap the huge profits. ATVI certainly knew the facts. That's why they beat the earning estimate again from the reports out just 2 days ago. :D :D :D

Well, there's not a lot of games available for you then, if you dislike MTX.
This is how most game industries work nowadays.


Not sure who mentioned Nintendo (probably the hidden message guy), but you are extremely misinformed, lol.

Agreed. Or other forms of income, like amiibo, new consoles to purchase every now and then, ... .

Nintendo's Amiibo loot crates are actually a very interesting topic regarding games of chances.

Nintendo has been known to take advantage of Amiibo for many many many years but they disguised them under the category of "collector's edition" kind of nonsense. The general public's perception is they are randomized physical goods in the category of Collection or Trading Cards much like Baseball or Marvel Cards.

There is a catch though. A year or 2 ago Nintendo added in game unlocks with Ambiibo loot crates. That opened the flood gate that "gambling" with their loot boxes not only reward physical figurines but also in game unlocks.

Well, players turned a blind eye on Nintendo while they selectively attacked EA, Blizzard and the likes. Very interesting... :D :D :D

Not for long though, now we see Nintendo is beginning to step up their loot box march. I mentioned Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp already... but actually before that they put loot boxes in Fire Emblem Heroes a couple of months ago alongside Rocket League. Perhaps their fanboys don't notice... or elect to be willfully blind about their loot boxes... but rest assured, Nintendo is not holier than thou. They are just as greedy in pushing loot boxes as the other game companies. :D :D :D

Sorry haters, but Jagex is not alone in this loot box "predators" list, far from alone indeed. :D :D :D
